Chicken names?

My layers are named alphabetically: Avis, Bella, Connie, Daisy, Ellen
My breeders are named by breed: Lincolnshire buffs are Linus, Lucy, Louie, Libby
Buff Sebrights are Bart, Ber, Bree, and Billy, Barbie, Betty, Bridget, Brona
You get the idea!
I named my BEI ducks Ike and Tina, but no longer have Tina so wondering what to name her replacement...

Oh, and I only name the ones we're keeping, the 3 chicks so far are numbered 1, 2, 3...

My layer are Sassy, Buffy, Goldie and Cuckoo. Roosters are Big D and Rocky (they get along great, even sleep together) The other Wyandotte was severely picked on her neck to where she is totally naked - we call her Necklace (get it NECK-LESS). My hubby came up with that one it fits her and she will probably be with us forever, I do not think we can integrate her with the rest of the flock. It is fun to name them.
 
I have Opal, Goldie, Button, and Amber. Amber is a rich coppery brown like the stone Amber, Goldie is a beautiful shimmering gold silkie, Opal is a pearly white hen whose feathers have an opaline glaze, and Button was dubbed with that nickname from a very young age because she was always smaller than her sister of the same breed, and her tail was a short stub that reminded me of Buttonquail. It just stuck, and I actually think it's a really cute name.

Really only have two named even though I have fourteen (not too many to name but one day I might eat one of them sooooooo don't really want to name them)
Mr. Cogburn (only adult roo I have right now and named for the obvious reason) and Bull. Bull is the only chick I had to help in my first try at incubation. I was going to call the chick Trooper but once s/he recovered from being so tired from the hatch, this little chick just started zooming around the brooder "bulling" everyone over. Actually DH named the chick and I am beginning to think that Bull might have to be called Bullette! The rest of them get called different names but pretty much they all respond to "Chickers" since that is what I call out when I am coming with the treats.

I love this discussion thing! I think the names are always fun. Here's what we have:
1. Sylvester (barred plymouth rock)
2. Tweety (buff orpington) - she died over the summer from a coyote. So sad.

3. Taz (gold-laced wynadotte), and
4. Fluffy :> (white silkie)

I love the Looney Toones theme. It's been fun. I've always wanted a pet name Fluffy and so when I got the white Silkie in November I couldn't resist. Too cute! Despite the names, they're all girls. At least, I'm hoping Taz and Fluffy are girls. I just got them in November. I suppose I should know by now but I don't have others of their breed to compare them too. As far as I know it's not as simple as looking at a human. Darn! I can't have roosters where I live (shouldn't have any chickens but a rooster is a give away in this quiet community!). I'll have a hard time trading in either Taz or Fluffy. I sure enjoy the chickens. They're such fun!
